Abstract
A positioning device and method can position a subject of positioning at a higher speed than conventional ones. A positioning device and method for moving a subject of positioning to a desired position, moves the subject of positioning at a desired speed and acceleration, and adjusts the acceleration/deceleration duration of the subject of positioning and the timing of starting the deceleration so as to cancel the residual vibration, in accordance with the vibration period of the residual vibration that occurs immediately after positioning the subject of positioning.
Claims12
A positioning device for moving a subject of positioning to a desired position, comprising:
- drive means for driving to move said subject of positioning;
- and
- control means for controlling said drive means to move said subject of positioning at a desired speed and acceleration, wherein
- said control means controls said drive means to adjust the acceleration/deceleration duration of said subject of positioning and the timing of starting the deceleration so as to cancel residual vibration, in accordance with the vibration period of said residual vibration that occurs immediately after positioning said subject of positioning, wherein
- said control means, a half period of said residual vibration after a force which causes the residual vibration is applied, applies vibration with the same force in the same direction to adjust the acceleration/deceleration duration of said subject of positioning to the duration that is a positive integer multiple of one period of said residual vibration, and also an integer multiple of one period of said residual vibration after a force which causes the residual vibration is applied, applies vibration with the same force in the opposite direction to adjust the timing of starting the deceleration for said subject of positioning to an integer multiple of one period of said residual vibration after the acceleration start time.

A positioning method for moving a subject of positioning to a desired position, comprising:
- the first step of moving said subject of positioning at a desired speed and acceleration;
- and
- the second step of adjusting the acceleration/deceleration duration of said subject of positioning and the timing of starting the deceleration so as to cancel residual vibration, in accordance with the vibration period of said residual vibration that occurs immediately after positioning said subject of positioning, wherein
- said second step, a half period of said residual vibration after a force which causes said residual vibration is applied, applies vibration with the same force in the same direction to adjust the acceleration/deceleration duration of said subject of positioning to the duration that is a positive integer multiple of one period of said residual vibration, and also a positive integer multiple of one period of said residual vibration after a force which causes said residual vibration is applied, applies vibration with the same force in the opposite direction to adjust the timing of starting the deceleration for said subject of positioning to a positive integer multiple of one period of said residual vibration after the acceleration start time.
